Liebster Lub.

Manal at Vanity
in Vanilla so kindly tagged me with a “Liebster Award”, which I humbly
accept!

"Liebster" is the German word for "beloved",
and this award is a way of recognizing the blogs with fewer than 200 followers
(like me!) and claim them as my beloveds, maybe? It's hazy. And here are the rules as I understand them: as a recipient of the Liebster award, I must
pass on this recognition to five blogs who meet the criteria, and then reveal 5
random facts about myself, and then do a little jig and bake a pie. No! I made
those last two things up. And, I only have 3 blogs for you...

Here we go. I will direct you to 3 of my real life friends with blogs, and encourage you to read what they have to say. Here they are:

1.
I hate toenails. I hate seeing them, I hate having them. They make me
retch. They are disgusting. I cut mine so short that they basically
aren’t there – and I encourage you to do the same.

2.
When I was 15 I memorized all the words to Lisa Loeb’s song “Stay (I
Missed You)”, and I still enjoy singing it, even if it destroys all my
make-believe indie cred, if I ever fooled anyone into believing I had
any.

3. When I go to a movie, once it starts I
immediately start thinking about when I can go home. I worry about how
long the movie might be, and what would happen if I needed to walk out.
Even if I enjoy the movie, I still think about leaving.

4. Olives and honey are the two foods that I absolutely will never eat. They are my food enemies.

5.
When I was a kid I wanted to be in the FBI, or be a detective. I still
think I’d be pretty good at it. I fancy myself an amateur sleuth
(snoop).

Here is a photographic interpretation of how honored I was to receive this award - represented by my cat, some strawberries, an American flag and some pita chips. Thanks, Manal (sorry for the cat photo, I know you're not keen)!

Hahaha, Abby - this is great! Your posts are always so witty, I love them. I'm the same at the movies. I rarely ever go unless it's a movie based on a book that I love (like the Harry Potter series but those are over now). I just don't think $14 tickets plus another $6 or so for snacks is reasonable for a movie...no movie is ever that good that I can't watch it in the comfort of my home on DVD. :p
